What is 10-12G?

Form 10 is the general form for registering a class of securities under the Exchange Act when no Securities Act registration is involved. The Section 12(g) version, 10-12G, is used by companies that want or need to become reporting companies, and widely by spin-offs, where shares are distributed to existing holders rather than sold.

A Form 10 reads much like an S-1: business, risk factors, financial statements, MD&A, management and executive compensation. Under Section 12(g) it becomes effective automatically 60 days after filing.

Who files

Spin-off companies, private companies entering the reporting system, and issuers crossing the Section 12(g) thresholds.

When it is filed

Before the company becomes a reporting company, with amendments responding to SEC comments.

FAQ

Why do spin-offs file a Form 10?

Shares in a spin-off are distributed to existing shareholders, not sold, so no Securities Act registration is needed, but the company must register under the Exchange Act.

When does a Form 10-12G become effective?

Automatically 60 days after filing, unless the SEC accelerates it.
